The Lich King's casual decree: No geek left behind?

Jan 27th 2009 11:01AM (Massively)
This article is funny to me being that it hits on the name "no child left behind" a program advancing children who didn't quite cut it on paper.

Things I like about this expansion, Arthas is a schmoozer, he's out in person bringing people into his fold, kinda like a good scourge PR rep! "Join me and I will give you cookies." Unlike Illidin who sat up in BT somewhere and we never seen him but for the Netherwing achievement.

I am on the fence in terms of weather or not a casual expansion will have ruined the game. While flying around ice crown I though to my self "ah, another dungeon I will never see" I am a casual gamer and do have a life out side of wow which makes it hard to fully experience the game. I am happy that me and my guild who are also casual raiders might actually be able to get through ice crown with out having to quit our day jobs. Gamer moral is important also!

On the other hand this expansion has several fights that require an IQ of at least 130, so this expansion may be a challenge for some! Finding 25 smart people can be a challenge on smaller servers, or for bigger servers 25 people with out a language barrier. Skill will now have to make up for a certain amount of Suck for some people. Which again is ironic for the "No gamer left behind" style the expansion has taken. I don't think the content is easier, I think our gear is better, if they wanted to make it harder just stop making better gear and have every one fight with the best lvl 70 gear out there.
